Ironhack

Joining Ironhack was one of the best decisions I ever made. I met great people, learned extremely valuable skills, and found a community that I will always be a part of.
I am very grateful to all Ironhack teachers. They are the best instructors I have. They not only provide theory and exercises and then leave you in the dark, their method is well structured to really get rid of the pedagogical friction and provide an ideal experience. They have this ability to understand that each of us is a different student and meets the needs of each student.
I haven't finished bootcamp yet, but I've started working as a developer and it's been very important for my professional development.

I'll be totally sincere: back in March, when I decided to quit my job and start coding again, the "bootcamp" idea seemed to me as "too much of a promise". To teach someone how to code from scratch in 9 weeks? "Impossible! Or it will be extremely superficial." - I though. I had a background of a 3-year technical programming course and 12 years of coding logic (and even though I knew the basics of programming).
I couldn't be more wrong.

The first 3 days I was learning what I already knew (with some new twists that didn't exist when I learned the first time). No surprises and still the same "this will be superficial" thought. From day 4 to the end of the course, I've never learned SO MUCH in so little time. And I'm not exaggerating.
Ironhack teaches you not just how to do something specific, but how to think about the problems you have and how to solve them (with what you know or how to search for the answer you need).
It may seem that 9 weeks are too little for learning how to code. But I prefer to think that It's OVER 500 HOURS of course (240h of pure classes, +/-120h of extra-class content and 180h of your own projects - where you'll really learn everything you saw with 'sweat and blood'). That's way over coding you'll see in a Computer Science's bachelor semester (or even a year).

I've been even more surprised to see my colleagues (that had NO programming background) to became capable full stack developers and all of them to be working within 2 months after the end of the course.
Ironhack was, easily, the best choice of my life.

My experience at Ironhack has been amazing, in recent months I have become someone else, I feel more capable of developing anything and accepting any challenge. The intensity of the course causes me to study more and more and motivates me to be a better version of myself. The support of the teachers is very important and very helpful, I could not fail to mention the support of colleagues also that in an always harmonious environment help to meet the challenges. The school prepares the student in every way, from technical training to background as a market view, how to present for a job interview, how to get your professional image, how to present projects, how to be a good professional. As I mentioned I feel like a better professional and person after I started studying at Ironhack

You can learn a lot studying in the data analytics Ironhack course. You will learn from the basics(Python, SQL, Github, Pandas) to more advanceds subjects like machine learning, predictive analysis and so on. We had teacher with a lot of experience that shared her knowledge and cases with us making it easier to comprehend when and how to use what we learned. The teacher assistants would always be there for us, trying their best to explains things we didnt understand and planning complementary classes to help us. Ironhack was a friendly place where there was a lot of diversity in genre and profiles. I can only have good memories from there.

The Ironhack bootcamp is very intensive, but the school itself makes the process as easy as possible for the student. 

The school has a modern campus and free beer on Fridays , that makes are very easy going environment, where um can take a nap when you are crazy stressed out or just hangout and talk to some cool people.

 

The bootcamp as said is pretty intensive, but the TAs (teacher assistants) are always there to help you even when your crisis is emotional. Haha 

 

And the school brings you pretty close to the market, every week there is talks with people working in the area, that helps you prepare even more to what is coming!

 

If you want pretty fast changes career wise and are willing to work like crazy, I totally recommend the ironhack bootcamp.

 

Booting was a unique, challenging and scary experience at the same time. I learned a lot and something very important was the people I met during that time.
The curriculum of the school is very complete and didactic, with practical application of what is studied day by day. helping to solidify what has been learned.
The teaching method is incredible as teachers, assistant teachers and staff.
The structure of the school is great with everything designed for the comfort and study of its users.
Ironhack gave me the opportunity to enter a work area that I discarded in the past, PROGRAMMING. Now I see how much I like it and better yet Ironhack gave me the opportunity to pass that knowledge learned to other people.
Best of all, they gave me the opportunity to have my first job in Brazil
The best way of teaching that I lived so far!
